Voted 10/10

Just curious, did Uncle Willie have a booming
business at one time ???

The economy, right?

	Hasn't voted	The economy, righto. Well, if Uncle Willie ever had a booming business at this location, it must have been long before my time. I figure I'm old enough to remember, but I don't. Nice to hear from you, Larry,

	Voted 10/10	Please, I have a final comment ... Why does it cost so much to grow vegetables these days? Surely, Uncle Willie had a very fresh & innovative idea back then ... This makes me want to drive the extra mile to Trader Joe's for some organic pizza !!!

	Hasn't voted	Well, Uncle Willie's mistake was to try to grow vegetables in an arid area like Joshua Tree. May be he should have sold organic pizza from Trader Joe's.

	Hasn't voted	Dragna was boss of the LA mob back in the 50's. They were also known as the "Mickey Mouse Mafia" because they didn't much power compared to the Chicago and New York families who controlled Las Vegas.
